  • Oh yeah, I’m a terrible text block skimmer and desperately need line breaks, punctuation, etc. (Also, not to mention the repetition really triggered my need to skim, lol). That many repeated phrases turned some words into white noise. So that was my bad.

    Good to hear the element blocker works!

    It def sounds tedious to manually block things, but like some comments have mentioned, there are probably some browser add ons that may have the functionality you seek.

  • TL;DR: OP could try using your finger on your phone to keep your place?

    Oh boy. I design UI (games, not software) and OP’s very specific need would stomp on a very common need for why people select text… which is to copy/paste.

    While on a computer, text selection doesn’t typically summon a pop up, it’s needed in mobile because how else would you easily get to copy and paste? Everyone else would rage at the loss of the tooltip and any other interaction would be painfully hidden if it was delegated to a combo of pressing your lock buttons or volume buttons while highlighting text.

    Quick edit: didn’t see the screenshot of the widget, might be the site you’re using, or browser? Also any adblocker add on should be able to hide those elements.

  • If there was any TV show that was cancelled or cut short that you could see the planned continuation/ending of, which would you choose?

    Jump

  • Yesssss. This! It was only one season from the ending!

    The show felt like it was going off the rails for a while but I really wanted to know where it was going and it’s a shame we’ll never know.

  • Counterpart! The show was cut after season 2 and had a promising premise. Also, the actors were great and the story was really starting to pick up.

    For anyone interested: Imagine your reality splitting into two and the resulting consequences a decade later. How much in common would you have with your other self if the split occurred in your childhood, adulthood, or even middle age? What choices before and after define you? Now add a brutal Cold War between the two realities. Would you trust you?

  • I was just at the hometown of the Michelin tire and they’re so proud that their metro and tram lines all use rubber tires. It certainly did not make the ride any quieter or smoother.

  • Definitely didn't waste half an hour making this

  • I had to scroll so far to see someone who likes 6! I’m a lefty, and every pencil felt so uncomfortable because of my grip and this was one of the few which didn’t make my fingers hurt.

  • Glancing at my 1.5GB screenshots folder

  • This is exactly what I do too! Bookmarks felt too hidden and easily forgotten so I now have folders upon folders of tabs I mean to get back to 💀

  • What's easier to shoot, a bow or a firearm?

  • Looool. Lars Anderson is such a meme joke with my archery friends cause he’s clearly drawing incredibly light draws at super close range. It’s like the equivalent of being showy with a rubber band slingshot. I’m sure a darts player can hit the same targets.

    Full disclaimer, I haven’t shot a real gun, just an air pistol and it did feel more intuitive and a little easier to get more accurate shots in comparison to all the tiny, preflight checks I need when I’ve drawn a compound bow.

    There’s also the point of needing to draw actual weight (40lbs+ is ideal for hitting targets 60-70 yards away) for effective shots that would make archery more tedious to get into if someone’s not very physically active.

    I’m sure both hobbies have their tedium, it’s just a matter of what one finds more interesting to master.
